I think that's a really large part of it. One of the major stressors right now is some big home repairs and workmen and noises and barking dogs. So the Monk imagery is really appropriate. My safe house is not only being torn apart, but it's also being invaded by sensory disturbances. I'm tense, my husband is tense, even my son is studying in his room to avoid the antsy dogs.
I just wish my controller would shut things down in such a way as to not make my stress worse because I can't concentrate enough to work. :( And, dare I say it, I think it's a bit quick on the trigger. I think maybe I could handle a bit more discomfort than it thinks.
My therapist has me talk to the controller as if it could understand. I gave it a shot, but I don't think it works that way.
